Question

The airspeed best for rate of climb to close to that of their minimum drag speed.

(a) True

(b) False

The question was posed to me in an internship interview.

I would like to ask this question from Climb Rate in division Climb and Descent Performance of Aircraft Performance

Answer 1

The correct answer is (a) True

For explanation I would say: The airspeed best for rate of climb to close to that of their minimum drag speed. The operating height is achieved by maximum rate climb. The safe height of an aircraft for take-off above the airfield is 15000m. The use of safe height is to avoid ground based obstacles and make a clear flight path to avoid aircraft collision and loss of life and property.
